Product Description

1986-1995 Mustang 5.0 Resto Intake Manifold Bolts
Original, or used Mustang intake bolts can fatigue over time and possibly break during the torque sequence. Have confidence when installing your new intake manifold on your Mustang by installing one of these lower intake bolt kits made exclusively for 5.0 Resto by ARP. This kit is the only one on the market that includes the stud & nut needed to retain the factory heater tube on 1986-1995 Mustang 5.0L.

Fitment Note
To utilize the heater tube stud on AFR cylinder heads, it will be necessary to use a couple of washers underneath the bolt head or cut approximately 6mm off the end of the threads. AFR intake bolt holes are blind unlike other heads on the market.

How To Install 302/351 Mustang Intake Manifold (79-95)

Check out our YouTube channel for even more tech tips, installation videos, how-tos, and more. The best place to go for anything Mustang related!

Published on 2015-06-22In this particular video, we are going to show you the general idea and installation procedures when installing an intake manifold and components onto your 302 or 351 engine.

Topping off any custom engine build boils down to your intake manifold. We offer quality intake manifolds from industry leading brands such as SVE, Trick Flow, Edelbrock, and Holley. All of which feature different power band performances, custom finishes, and different throttle body openings to match the expectations of your engine build.

Any intake manifold you do decide to go with can be bolted down with our EXCLUSIVE lower intake bolt kit. These bolts are made by ARP exclusively for us here at Late Model Restoration. They are a direct replacement for OEM intake bolts, will feature a black oxide coating for longevity, and will have the stud and nut for use with factory 86-95 heater tubes.

When I decided to change my stock intake to the Explorer GT40 I didn't want to reinstall my original intake bolts. I wanted a fresh set that also had the stud provision for my heater tube. This set not only came with the stud provision and the nut the finish on the hardware is very high quality. When all were torqued to spec they were no "snapping bolt" problems at all. They match OEM so it doesn't look like a cheap, generic bolt kit. Actually got a compliment on them. A compliment! Thanks LRS for helping keep my '89 GT convertible on the road!

I was recently upgrading my 86 foxbody convertible from the stock upper and lower intake to the 93 cobra upper and lower intake. I did not want to use the lower intake bolts the previous owner had put which we're some type of carpenter hardware! Got this and was very please with the quality and the way they stood out! Great product!

Stock ones have two bolts that have a nut on top for fastening. One for a hose catch and one for the ground near the firewall. This set only has one. I re-used the stock one for the hose catch. No big deal.

I bought this a few days ago because after removing the lower intake manifold, the 20 year old passenger side front bolt broke off in the head. I'm glad I purchased these! They fit perfect, and look factory.

One small issue

This kit is great! However, for my particular combo, Holley Systemx Intake/AFR Heads, the heater tube bolt/stud was too long and required the use of washers because it was bottoming out in the head.
